Question Life Books/Profiles

We're just starting on our journey to adopt. We are still working on the paperwork to send into our Adoption Advocate who will be doing our Pre-placement study, then will help us find an agency, and continue with us all the way through the post-placement studies.
I've read here and elsewhere about the need to make Lifebooks/profiles, but I was wondering if there's someplace on the Web or books on how to make a Lifebook? Does the agency give you examples or how-tos?
I'd love to get started on it now so that we'll have the best one we can have when we need it!
Thanks for your help.
Kat

I sent you a PM of the book we used to help us write our profile for our second adoption. We got matched in 1 month after our profile had been shown.. Hope it will help..

We've been matched with a family due in Feb... this one feels *right*!
We're back to square one.
